Comment (by igloo):

 Thanks for the report. Can you please say what commandline you were using
 to compile when benchmarking, and what platform you were on?

 At first glance I can't see why your implementation should be any faster
 than the implementation in GHC.Real, so my suspicion is different command
 line flags. What happens if you copy the library code into ghctest and
 compile that in the same way, rather than using the version from the
 library?


 Thanks

 Ian
